Wish there was a zero-star option. I flew with a personal-item sized bag that I have used repeatedly with no issues. On 12/30/2025 I was flying from Las Vegas to Dallas with this bag. EVERY passenger who did not pay for a carryon bag and only had a personal item was forced to wait in a long line to put their bag into the bag checker. All the while, someone would intermittently announce that the door was going to be closed for the flight we were all boarding. Everyone was stressed; people were trying to rearrange things in their bags.
One older man tried to point out that another passenger was boarding with a bag identical to his as a personal item and the employees completely ignored him until, with no other option, he paid when he should not have had to. The person he had pointed out had a carryon as well as that identical bag as their personal item and those passengers did not have to check any bag sizes. So that poor old man just paid like we all did.
On the flight to Las Vegas from Dallas, I flew with this same bag packed in the same manner on Spirit (yes, Spirit) and it fit into their bag checker. Here's the thing: on the website, Frontier and Spirit cite the same dimension requirements. So perhaps Frontier has altered their bag checkers? I heard multiple passengers who were not only frustrated but confused. They had flown with their bags multiple times and had no issue, just like me. One thing I learned after this flight: EMPLOYEES ARE PAID ON COMISSION FOR COLLECTING EXTRA BAGGAGE FEES AT THE GATE. 10%. Fly any other airline - even Spirit, if you really need to save money. But whatever you do, don't fly Frontier.

Terrible customer service. Hidden charges they don’t tell you anything about. The kiosks were not working.. and they had the nerve to charge after getting help!!! The charge for a pet is ridiculous!! They were not clear on the price each way.. so confusing. They quoted one thing but charged another amount!!

1 because 0 is not an Option. Worst customer I’ve ever dealt with, terrible, uncomfortable, tight seats and just delay after delay and after the delay we sat in the runway to taxi for over an hour for a gate to open up.

The most obtuse and incompetent people I've ever dealt with, they are also scammers. Intentionally make sure their app doesn't work so they can charge you an agency fee. They don't really care. They are late, filthy seats, and the plane smells really bad. It's like you are traveling on a Central American Bus. Pay extra and save yourselves a major headache. Low fares doesn't have to translate to incompetent people.

I have flown Frontier for years without incident... until now. Flight 1 (Cleveland to Tampa) was cancelled w/no options within 24 hours. Flight 2 (24 hours later) caused me to miss my connecting flight BECAUSE THEY COULDN'T GET THE PLANE DOOR OPEN AND WE WERE STUCK ON THE PLANE FOR ALMOST 30 MINUTES.
When I missed the connecting flight absolutely no one cared. The people at ticketing were EXTREMELY RUDE and actually left me standing there crying as they all left for the night. I tried to reach customer service for HOURS. The only option they were giving me was to do another connecting flight that would be roughly 18 more hours of travel, after the extra day from the first cancelled flight, and already 7 hours of travel that I had that day, there was no way I could go through this AND I had to be back at work on Monday morning. They flew me from Cleveland Ohio to Denver and left me stuck there. I had to then buy a ticket on Southwest for $600 so I could be home to get to work. It was the rudest and most uncaring customer service I have ever run into. They gave me a $50 voucher - as if I will ever fly this airline again. Unbelievable!!!! And to top it off, they lost my luggage.

On Dec. 2nd, 2025 we booked 8 flights for a trip in March, 10 days after booking our flights we were notified our departure time for our trip home was changed from 11:00 am to 3:40 pm. Arrival time home went from 1:15 pm to 5:55 pm. We purposely waited until Dec. 2nd to book our flights for cheaper rates. We specifically chose the flight leaving at 11:00 am with Frontier because of the departure time and arrival time home. The 1:15 pm arrival home gave us a 4 hour "cushion" for last minute flight delays, etc..
I contacted Frontier Airlines after receiving the message regarding the flight time change. After waiting on hold for 47 minutes when the call dropped and then waiting on hold for another 38 minutes I was finally able to speak to a customer service representative. I requested that at the very least they discount our tickets due to the large change in times. I was told the best they could do was give me a $75 voucher that is of course on good to use for their airline. I told them I wanted to check for other flights and would call back.
There were other flights that we could have booked on December 2nd that were similar priced and a couple that were cheaper but the arrival times home were between 2 pm and 4 pm, so we chose Frontier's flight with the 1:15 pm arrival time. Of course when I went back to look for those other flights they are now over double the cost they were on Dec. 2nd. We cannot afford to change to any of those flights.
I then tried to contact Frontier Airlines again to ask that they apply the vouchers to the trip that was delayed. I called countless times and waited on hold for countless minutes only to have the call dropped after waiting on hold for excessive amounts of time. On December 29th, I waited for 113 minutes only to have the call drop! Finally, on December 30th (today) I was able to reach a representative. When I asked to have the voucher applied to our flights I was told the voucher was only good for future flights. I explained that we are not likely to use the vouchers since we don't travel via airplane often (I am 48 years old and the upcoming trip will be the 3rd time I have every flown in my lifetime). I was still told the only option was to apply them to a future flight. I asked to speak to a manager, after a couple times of the representative trying to "ignore" my request to speak to a manager, he hung up on me.
I called right back, waited on hold for 16 minutes and the call dropped. I called again, waited on hold for 30 minutes and finally got someone. I again asked to speak to a manager and again was hung up on. I called back again, waited on hold for 46 minutes before a representative answered. I again asked to speak with a manager. She responded by saying she could cancel our flights, and re-book the same flight, apply the vouchers but we would still owe more money (even with the vouchers) than we paid for the flights originally and only then (after cancelling the flights) could she make a note on our cancellation that I want to speak with a manager. It took multiple times of going around and around before I finally got her to NOT cancel our flights, and for her to submit a request for a manager to contact me when they become available.
IF, a manager does contact me and IF they agree to apply the voucher to the flight that THEY changed by 4 hours and 40 minutes, I will change this review and we would consider using Frontier Airlines in the future or would recommend them to others. We understand bad weather and sick pilots can cause unexpected delays that are out of the control of the airline. HOWEVER, we do not understand how an airline can post that a flight is available (3 months out) and 10 days later suddenly know that flight is not available (2.5 months in the future). We feel it is unprofessional and unethical for them to post "a flight" as available, during the one day of the year that the highest amount of flights are purchased in a single day, and then conveniently say that aircraft is no longer available on that day 2.5 months in the future. The same aircraft they said would be available on that day, 10 days prior.
IF they were to apply the $75 voucher to the flight that they say they are compensating us for our inconveniences caused by that flight delay, it would at least show good faith on their part to remedy THAT flight. BUT, giving us a voucher that we can only use by purchasing more from their company (more than the $75 voucher) does not at all seem like they are trying to compensate us for their inability to plan accordingly before they allow people to book flights that do not exist and therefore negatively affect us and our plans that we responsibly planned for.

I recently flew Frontier Airlines flight F93537 from BOS to MCO, and the experience was deeply disappointing. It appears that a culture of rudeness runs deep within this airline. Every interaction was unpleasant, from the check-in agent, Osma* to the wheelchair assistance staff, and finally the gate agent at E6 (** guy who intentionally covered his badge to avoid identification).
In addition to the poor service, the flight was delayed. Originally scheduled for 12:22 PM, we did not take off until 1:30 PM, and no explanation was provided to the passengers. Furthermore, the aircraft lacked power outlets to charge devices. My advice: Save yourself the frustration and pay a little more for a different airline. There is simply no excuse for such consistently terrible customer service.

Save yourself the headache and spend the extra money to fly any other airline! Was due to fly out of Cleveland Ohio at 5:30am to Boston Massachusetts, flight was canceled last minute due to not enough crew members! I'm sorry but shouldn't there be backup crew members available for no call no shows, which is the excuse we were given. All future flights to Boston had over 12 hour layovers!!! Ended up having to rent a car and drive 14 hours from Ohio back home to Maine. Lost money on my bus ticket from Boston to Maine due to this nightmare. I will never fly Frontier again! Do better Frontier, your passengers depend on your reliability. If I wouldn't get fired for not showing up for work tomorrow I wouldn't be as stressed as I am! Frontier should have to reimburse me for the rental car!!!

At TPA airport only 1 out of 6 self service kiosks was working when I went to print my boarding pass. So instead I went to the check-in counter. One of the employees said it would cost $25 to print (ridiculous), so I’d be better off downloading the app and using the digital option at no cost. She offered to do it for me on my phone which I allowed her to. She quickly bypassed all the prompts and at the end it showed “No Carry-On” which I did in fact have one. I pointed this out to her and she replied “no sweetie that’s a personal item.”
She also said “congratulations you just saved $25.” I assumed she knew better than me so I went on my way. While in line to board the aircraft, an employee pulled me out of the line and explained that my bag was larger than permitted for personal use and I needed to pay $99 since I waited until last minute. I was one of the last groups to board so there was no time to explain what happened prior. I had no choice but to pay. This issue could have been avoided had the employee not misguided me. I also could have saved money by paying prior to boarding since this option costs less.

Frontier has a blaring flaw that makes the airline a horrible experience. Every step of the process is understaffed with no sense of urgency. People are 8rs and done mentally. The process has flaws throughout. I as a process improvement leader saw obvious signs that no one cares about the customer experience. Delays are simply no one is set to get the process moving on time. The pilot said “sorry for the delay but you know we on Frontier time”. WOW….clean up the timing and the pure discomfort might be tolerable. But no future flights with them. Oh, they were late and decided to intentionally leave the luggage behind because they didn’t want to wait for it to be transferred over from connecting flight, so I’m back today to pick up my luggage. One person working the claims counter and carousel so waiting again.

Frontier Airlines may seem like they have low airfare compared to other airlines. I am someone who flies often, and today I flew home on frontier. It was the worst experience I’ve had with any airline. First of all, they charged me $168 to check two light weight bags. One was a carry on. Agent encouraged me to just check it because the carry-on price is the same as checked baggage, which is at least $70 per bag! Then I’m board the plane the seats do not recline and there were no complimentary beverages or snacks.
The Frontier app needs some work. I have called Customer Service several times because my birthday is wrong in the app and then I’ve paid for TSA pre-check but since the app doesn’t have the correct birthday, it won’t allow me to check-in for my flights and it won’t add the TSA pre-check, so I would have to see the ticket agent to get my ticket properly printed. The whole experience was a hassle. I will not be flying with frontier ever again unless they make some serious changes.

This was the worst flying experience I’ve ever had, and my family had made it a rule to never fly Frontier ever again. Our first 10:35 pm flight was delayed by over 3 hours before finally being cancelled at 1 in the morning. They never gave us a hotel voucher (said it would arrive to my email in 45 minutes but never came) and rebooked us only within Frontier flights to a flight the next night also at 10:35, which they cancelled with no warning or explanation at 10:30 that night. The website to talk to an agent or refund our flight was magically not working. By the time we calculated the cost of the hotel stays, Ubers, extra meals, missed time at home, and the flight on a different airline we finally had to book so we could get home, we could have just flown first class on a different airline. Never fly Frontier ever.

This airlines needs to be shut down. Currently, I am stranded in Florida with my 7-year-old daughter without any accommodations from Frontier Airlines. In fact, the staff, including the Fort Lauderdale supervisors, thought this was a joking matter, look me in the face and told me it was nothing they can do about it! If this was another airline, they would have provided accommodations to make sure we get home and at least hotel and meal voucher. For the time being, I keep calling customer service! Waste of time, I will file a police report, get an attorney involved, the local news DOT, BBB. This is day two, I am stuck in Florida trying to get Back to Pennsylvania!
Then the staff at Fort Lauderdale decided to rebook me for another flight at an airport 2 hours away PBI. $100 to get there, then PBI kicked us out saying they don’t allow people to stay overnight at the airport, explained the situation, they didn’t care, the security guards, meanwhile, I’m still stranded here!!!! If this is how Frontier operates, they need to shut down. This is not right, someone please help!!! This wickedness!!!!

Frontier Airlines left me stranded in Atlanta while I was trying to return home to Boston. I called customer service to rebook and reached an offshore representative who told me I would need to wait 24 hours. Before offering any assistance, the agent hung up on me. No refund was provided. No alternative flight was arranged. Being abandoned mid-trip with no support or accountability is unacceptable.

I'm sitting here watching as my flight was delayed for its second time. Originally I was to depart for Florida at 5:40 pm. Delayed due to another flight being late till 8:47 pm. Now bumped back to 10:11 pm. The counter just announced that if we (the passengers) don't move our asses. As soon as it gets here we'll be left behind?! So we can get delayed for hours and it's on us to hustle.

I wish there was an option to give 0 stars. This airline has continually been the worst experience I’ve had with any airline company. Yes, Allegiant and Spirit are better than Frontier. This company does not care or prioritize their customers, regardless of if you pay them for “extras” meaning seats, bags, boarding, etc. They will make your stuff your personal item into a bin that is much smaller than the space you have underneath your seat. If you can’t get it in there, they will charge you 100$ at the gate. This isn’t my problem though. My problem is when I don’t receive the seat I paid for, and Frontier offers no resolve or compensation other than “we’re deeply sorry.” DON’T USE THIS AIRLINE! Pay a little bit more and use a company that values their customers. Frontier has ruined the flying experience for me.

Dec 22nd. I’m an Active Duty service member and wanted to fly in to see my family. I had booked online with American Forces Travel but didn’t see any military benefits—you had to pay for any baggage other than personal. So I paid for a checked bag and personal bag. I arrived at ATL Airport on a busy and hectic day for Frontier. Our line was wrapped around the kiosk a few times and staff was very rude; almost laughable. When it was my turn to get my ticket, I presented my military ID and that was that; I bought one checked baggage and one carry on through American Forces Travel. However, it was only AFTER that I found out that Frontier offered military benefits like free baggage. I called Frontier and they told me to submit a claim, then their representative, Vishal, told me I could not receive any reimbursement after boarding.
That’s all good except 1) the staff saw my military ID and didn’t explain benefits and 2) didn’t offer a reimbursement. This is so sad. How could customer service be this bad? Summary: I was entitled to 2 free checked bags and 1 free carry on but ended up only bringing 1 checked bag and 1 carry on through my own dime; ie I paid for baggage when it was free to begin with.

The worst airline I have ever encountered. 3 delayed notifications and a cancellation on Christmas day. Missed the birth of my grandson. I had 3 delays and a cancellation at McArthur airport. The agent found me a flight out of JFK so I took a $150 taxi to JFK only to learn she booked me on an overbooked flight. Then they gave me a Jet Blue ticket with 1 layover in Boston, well that didn’t work either because the connecting flight would be gone by the time I arrived to Boston, and entire nightmare. So I was in the airport from 4:30am until 8:30 pm. DO NOT FLY WITH THEM, CUSTOMER SERVICE IS A NIGHTMARE! The STAFF ARE Unprofessional and lack compassion.

Flight delayed, then canceled — and the experience only got worse. This is not the first time I’ve had issues with Frontier, but this experience was by far the worst. After a long delay, my flight was ultimately canceled. When I went to the counter for help, the customer service was shockingly rude. The agent at LGA was dismissive and unprofessional, offering no real assistance.
When I expressed concern about being rebooked days later, after Christmas, I was told to “take a train or a bus” if I didn’t like it. To make matters worse, I was also told to “suck it up” because the agent had to work on Christmas anyway. That level of disrespect toward a paying customer is completely unacceptable. What made the situation even more frustrating was learning that Frontier has no partnerships or flexibility with other airlines to help passengers find alternate flights. When cancellations happen, customers are simply left stranded with no real options or support.
Flight disruptions happen, but how an airline treats people during those moments matters. Frontier showed no empathy, accountability, or professionalism. This experience made it clear that customer care is not a priority for this airline. I strongly caution others before booking. No amount of savings is worth being treated this way.

A year later today, 12/24/25 I was charged $59.99 for a membership. I called them to dispute it, telling them I didn't want the membership. They refused to give me my money back. Don't use Frontier Airlines, they are worthless. Highway robbery should be their slogan.

The flight was original scheduled to depart at 2:14 pm, and I even paid for a seat upgrade…. Upon arrival … after boarding the flight we waited on the tarmac for 2 /hours. Only for us to be told that we will be heading back to the gate. Now I’ve had this happen to me before and if my day ended there it wouldn’t have been a problem. At this time it was around 4:30pm. We deplaned after getting multiple alarming excuses, in the climate we’ve been in with airplane issues hearing that the flaps were left open and yet we were set to take off is concerning.
Additionally we were told that staff was late which added to the delays and confusion. After many miscommunication they finally canceled the flight. I NEEDED to get home 12/23/25 so I opted to take the flight to Newark, which eventually resulted in me taking an uber to NYC. This new flight was scheduled for 10:40. I was stranded in the airport all day. Again, if this was the end, things wouldn’t be so bad HOWEVER after waiting all that time an HOUR before boarding I was told there’s a gate change. I had to run to the other side of the airport to get there. Then I was screamed at by staff members while trying to get answers, only to find out the seat that I paid extra for doesn’t even exist. This was by far the most expensive, me having to buy not only lunch but dinner in the airport, but traumatizing experience.

You can be their elite diamond status and it doesn’t matter to them. They’ll cancel your flights and not send any notification. And when you could have rebooked it immediately if there was a card issue, they wait until you check in to find out it was cancelled and then REFUSE to honor the price you booked at. Zero customer service. Small space. Gate agents are rude, I’ve watched them act like children lashing out on flyers. I flew with them all year because they’re cheap but when I say cheap is not worth the lack of everything else you’ll experience AND status with them gets you absolutely nowhere. They promise you all of these things with status and you’ll never experience those benefits.

Airline is ridiculous. They lure you in with lower prices and then after booking (and not long before it's time to fly), surprise! Extra baggage fees. Normal airlines include it in the price so that's the assumption when booking. Paid an extra 150 for baggage, round trip. Then boarding passes. Surprise! You also pay 25 Dollars for a boarding pass. Another 50 Dollars in fees, round trip. Also, most airlines allow 50 pounds before additional fees apply. Frontier is 40 pounds. So good luck on that.
Seats were awful. It was like sitting on a concrete wall. Not even water during a 2.25 hour trip and you're crammed like sardines. This is after hearing the airplane sounds and saying five prayers mid air, hoping you make it alive to your destination and praying the wheels don't fall off the plane during landing. Turbulence. Just an added bonus. I almost swore the pilot enjoyed flying through the clouds and made a mission to do so. Cherry on top. Skip Frontier. You will actually pay more in the end. With other airlines, and at least you'll get peanuts and don't need to change your clothes after the flight. Bring a fresh pair of clothes with you if you're using Frontier. You will need to purchase a seat for each buttcheek. One cheek seat. Nuff said.

I was due to fly 2 days before Christmas to see my daughter and spend Christmas with her as I haven't done in over 20 years. When I got to the airport everything was fine we boarded at the correct time we even made it to the runway at that time the captain made an announcement that there was mechanical issues and we had to turn around. Yes I agree that was the best decision to make because that would have been dangerous to fly and put everybody's life at risk. Now we were told all passengers were told to hang out they should have another flight ready for them by 10:00 p.m., well 10:00 p.m. Came and then they were told that the flight was completely canceled to go to customer service or to go home and call the airlines to reschedule your flight.
Well here we are today I called the airlines first thing this morning, I was told there was no flights out today the only flight they had was Christmas Eve and I would leave at 6:30 in the morning and I wouldn't arrive in Florida until 5:00 p.m. That night with two layovers and they wanted to charge me an additional $200 on top of what I had already paid. They also kept telling me that I could fly with a different airline but those prices were eight and $900 for a seat which I was unable to afford, they gave me $100 voucher that did nothing it didn't help at all and I'm very disgusted with this company.
They are terrible, terrible airline and I feel because of what happened they should be responsible to find you another flight and to make sure that that flight is financially covered because it wasn't an error or my behalf. Thank God my son-in-law found a flight tonight with Southwest airlines who might always use and I should have just went with them again but we chose Frontier because it was a little cheaper.

I really wish I had looked at these reviews before booking my tickets from DFW to LGA— I was excited to find a cheaper flight, but it was NOT worth it. They charge exorbitant fees for both carry-ons and checked bags, so it ends up being the same price as a nice airline. I arrived at the airport really early so I could eat dinner and look around, but apparently Frontier won’t let you check in til 2 hours before your flights (not stated anywhere online when I booked or on my boarding pass). By the time I waited, checked in, and got through security, I barely had time to grab fast food before boarding. Then, after the flight, I waited over an hour to claim my luggage. DO NOT DO IT. Spending a little more is absolutely worth it for a different airline!

Always looking to make an extra dime. It’s ridiculous. If I could leave 0 stars I absolutely would. We booked out flight MONTHS ago and all of a sudden they “rAn oUt oF rOoM” on the plane. Here’s an idea.. STOP SELLING MORE TICKETS THEN SEATS. They recycled our seats for people who bought a ticket more recently hoping whoever bought earlier, forgets. AND moved our flight to a PM instead of an AM. Y’all’s seats feel like sitting on a cinderblock and after you get off the plane, go ahead and schedule a chiropractor appointment cause you’re gonna need it. If you’re going to screw people over and make them pay more and more….the LEAST you can do is when when FINALLY get on a plane..let the seats be comfortable.

By the time we got up to the machine to get our bag tags, a message popped up reading, "See an attendant." By the time we got up to the attendant we were told that we were 49 minutes from flight time but that was not sufficient. We needed to have our bags checked an hour before flight time. They offered us no help. We went to a re-booking desk.... They had a flight the next day, but it would not accommodate all 6 of our friends and family.

Frontier Airlines – Seeking Assistance for Theft From Checked Bag. I’m hoping someone from Frontier Airlines can help me. On December 8, I flew LAX → DFW and checked a bag containing a factory-sealed bottle of custom tequila I brought back from Mexico. When I got home, the bottle’s tamper-proof seal had been cut open, and about 75% of the contents were gone. This was not leakage or damage — the seal was deliberately cut.
I reported this immediately, but my claim was denied with a generic response that “alcohol is restricted,” even though this was a theft/pilferage incident, not a damaged alcohol claim. I attempted to escalate through chat, but the conversation was closed without an investigation. I now have a DOT complaint and TSA inquiry open, but I’m hoping Frontier will take this seriously and assist directly. Who can I speak with to review this properly? Case ID: **. Thank you — I appreciate any help from someone who can look into this.

Minus 5 if it was possible. On Friday, 12/5/2025, I was scheduled to fly from Miami International back to Austin on Frontier flight #F94123, confirmation number: **. I went to Miami to support a close friend whose husband passed unexpectedly at the age of 57. I arrived on Tuesday on an American flight, with no issues. It was a tough time, and I was anxious to get home. The return frontier flight was scheduled to leave at 7:30 AM Miami time on Friday 12/5.
I arrived at the airport by 5:15 am and headed to the counter to check in. Mary, the agent at the Frontier counter seemed to already be having a trying day, I said good morning and asked to be checked in for the 7:30 flight to Austin. I presented her with my valid ID and credit card as I was trying to check in a bag too big for a carry-on. First, she said she cannot check me in because she cannot print a boarding pass and luggage tag, but she charged me $104.00 for the bag. She then said she cannot check me in because there is a security issue in the computer attached to me and preventing her from checking me in and to step away from the counter. I asked if she could help me or call her supervisor to resolve the issue, she said she called her supervisor to find out what they can do, I need to step away from the counter.
I call customer service, 1-8014019000, and got Sheila. She tries to help me get the boarding pass on the website, but we keep getting an error message. Sheila asks to speak to Mary who refuses to take the call, she ignores me, repeatedly tells me to step away from the counter, rudely, and she helps other customers. Now my voice is getting louder, and I am demanding to speak to her supervisor. It turns out her supervisor has been standing next to her all this time watching this exchange unfold, her name was Atinea or something like that. She finally identifies herself as the supervisor, and begins to tell me how she cannot help me? Well, who can? Where is the TSA Office, where is Airport Security? Can you call them over? What is the process?
Atinea or whatever her name was takes my phone to speak to Sheila. She proceeds to tell Sheila, the customer Service rep on the phone, that there is a security issue in the computer preventing them from checking me in. They all tell me I will not be boarding this or any other flights until the issue is resolved. I ask again, how do I resolve this issue, I must get home. Thank God, at this point a Sergeant with Miami Dade Sheriff's department at MIA comes by and asksme what is going on. I tell him everything that has transpired and that I just got to Miami on Tuesday, with no issue, and that I have been a TSA pre-check for many years. I travel on regular basis and never had an experience like this. One of his officers, Officer **, joins us, and listens to the story. He takes my ID's (Driver's License and US Passport card) and goes to the TSA office to check if there is a problem.
I am still standing talking with the Sergeant whose name I neglected to get, he was so patient and kind, when Officer ** returns & tell us, me and the Sergeant, that there is no TSA or security problem. Officer ** goes behind the counter to speak to the Frontier Agents. Meanwhile, Sheila, customer service, on the phone refuses to refund my ticket, said she can only give me a credit, as if after this contemptible treatment I would use this airline ever again? I got charged for the seat and the bag. I still need to get home, the incredibly noble & kind Sergeant finds a flight on American, leaving at 8:30 AM. He asks Officer **, to drive me to the American airlines terminal where I buy a ticket, board and get home with no problems or issues. Of course that cost me another $300 plus dollars.
In conclusion: - Frontier and its staff are terrible. They are quick to take your money, without providing service or the seat you paid for. They will not support you if you have a problem, and certainly will not refund your ticket when they refuse to serve you even when they are wrong. - The Agents, Mary and Atinea at MIA were unprofessional and unhelpful. It was clear they treat Frontier clients with contempt, disrespect, and disdain. I guess they hate their jobs. Maybe their poor treatment of the customers is a reflection of how Frontier treats them. - Sheila, the agent on the phone, tried a little to be helpful, but was quick to give up and say not my problem. She was also quick to tell me, "Your ticket is non-refundable, I will issue you a credit." - Beware of predatory business practices and policies when you fly, some of these airlines are getting away with very unsavory behavior.

I have never left a review for any business. I am writing this one because I want to save others from going through the same experience with Frontier Airlines. When I arrived at the bag check kiosk, my reservation number was not accepted. I waited in line to speak to a staff member. Of course, there was only one person working. She was visibly flustered, as anyone would be in the all-too-familiar corporate scenario of staffing the fewest possible number of people for the greatest possible number of tasks.
When I finally got to speak with her, she told me that my tickets were cancelled. I asked why. She said my account was flagged as fraudulent. Spoiler alert: it’s not. I told her I was never notified of this. She told me there was nothing she could do. Because I was now running late due to the long wait in line, I had no choice but to purchase another ticket.
When I got to my destination, my bag did not arrive. I traveled for work, and everything I needed for work was in my bag. After an hour of waiting and traveling to other baggage stations, it became obvious that my luggage was lost. I went to visit Frontier’s baggage office. No one was there. I went to visit Frontier’s ticket desk. No one was there. I tried calling a service line provided by an airport official. No one picked up. I finally got hold of someone who gave me a tracking number for my bag and told me to keep an eye on it.
I read online that staff members are only on site two hours before a flight arrives, so I woke up at 5 a.m. and drove an hour and a half back to the airport to catch someone during the small window they would be available. As before, only one baggage checker was staffed for the day. This time, a supervisor was also available. I explained my situation to the supervisor, and she typed some things into a computer and said I would get a call from Frontier soon.
The next day, I got a call from Frontier. They said they found my bag. It never left its original location. They said they would ship it back to me. I asked when, explaining that my entire career was on hold until I had it. They said they didn’t know, but that it should be on the next flight later that day and that someone would call me.
No one called me. The tracking app told me my luggage was in transit, but by the end of the day, it still hadn’t arrived. Another day passed. I checked my tracking number again. The link no longer worked. I called the customer service line again, and they told me to call Frontier’s bag check area at the airport. I told the customer service rep that almost every time I try to contact Frontier at the airport, no one is working. She gave me an exact time to call, so I called. And called. And called. Predictably, no one answered.
I am now several days without my luggage, several days behind on the job I came here to complete, and must drive back down to the airport again and hope I bump into someone during the time they are supposed to be working. This is the worst experience I have ever had with any so-called company. Frontier’s business model is emblematic of how corporations continue to innovate new and exciting ways to hate their customers and staff. It's exhausting. I know that this review – and the thousands like it that make up Frontier’s abysmal approval ratings - will not impact Frontier in any way. I’m only writing this so that you will take it into consideration and choose to book your flight with literally any other airline on earth.

We asked why they were charging us for carry-on when they hadn't the first time, and they said it was because of the type of package we had purchased. They gave us a lecture to avoid giving us a refund, and that was that. Secondly, the return flight was delayed by two hours. Honestly, the service is terrible. I don't recommend it.

Flight 4547, November 26, 2025 — Atlanta → Los Angeles. I fly a lot, but this was my first time choosing this airline — and it will definitely be the last. Yesterday, on my second long flight of the day, I was seated by the window next to the emergency exit. I was extremely tired, and my phone battery had died. Because the aircraft didn’t even have a USB port, I politely asked a flight attendant if there was any way to charge my phone. I was refused — which I could understand — but what happened next was absolutely unacceptable.
When the steward heard my strong ** accent, his attitude changed immediately. He told me that the emergency exit row was “reserved for native speakers” because he wasn’t sure I would understand instructions in case of an emergency. This is blatant discrimination. I objected, but he insisted and moved me to the back of the plane against my will. As a result, I had no proper space and no assistance with my backpack, which I had to place at my feet because no one helped me return it to the overhead bin.
To make matters worse, the flight attendant who initiated all of this was not wearing a name badge. He is easy to recognize: a young man with curly shoulder-length hair and glasses. When I asked two female crew members for his name after landing, they claimed they “didn’t know,” even though they clearly worked on the same team. Discrimination based on nationality or accent is illegal and unacceptable in the aviation industry. I will never fly with this airline again, and I will make sure to share my experience so other passengers are aware of how unprofessionally and disrespectfully some crew members behave.

I keep trying to give Frontier a chance. Truly. I have flown with them multiple times and every single experience has felt like stepping into an experiment where the theme is frustration. Flight cancellations without warning. Flights delayed overnight with no gate, no information, no apologies. Customer service that feels like a maze built out of hold music and broken chat windows. Hours spent trying to get a real answer, only to get a voucher for fifty to seventy five dollars that can only be used on future Frontier flights. That is like getting a coupon to return to the same restaurant that gave you food poisoning.
The planes feel tired. The operations feel chaotic. It is impossible to tell if anything is on schedule or if anyone at the airline actually knows what is happening. Tonight it was a mechanical issue, again. No clear communication at LAX. No signage directing passengers to the shuttle to the international terminal, which is a long ride if you are coming from Burbank. Frontier simply does not tell customers what they need to know to make smart decisions. Families with kids, people with jobs, travelers with tight schedules deserve better than this level of silence.
Frontier’s prices look cheap, but the cost backfires when they strand you overnight with no plan and hand you a coupon that only works if you decide to roll the dice again. My advice is simple. You get what you pay for, and sometimes you get even less. If you are considering flying Frontier, understand that you are buying a ticket for uncertainty and frustration. There is no reliability. There is no real customer support. There is only damage control and excuses. I am done giving them chances.

This airline turned what should’ve been a simple Denver-to-San Diego getaway into a full-scale disaster. Frontier failed us at every step with a level of indifference so astounding it borders on contempt. We arrived at our gate before the boarding cutoff. The agent — rude, dismissive, and openly unprofessional — refused to acknowledge the time, refused to call a supervisor, refused to give her name, and then literally hid behind her monitor before vanishing. When we finally located a supervisor, he made it clear he felt no obligation to help us at all. Only after pressing did he begrudgingly book us for a flight the next morning — forcing us to miss our car rental and be charged the full amount despite never using it.
When we finally reached San Diego, our trip unraveled even further. We paid more than double for a replacement rental… and then discovered our luggage never arrived. Neither the Denver nor San Diego Baggage Service Office could locate it. Our vacation was already crippled, but now we were forced to buy clothes, toiletries, medication replacements, and essentials we had packed — thousands of dollars in unexpected expenses piled on because Frontier could not perform the basic task of delivering a checked bag.
The next morning, Denver BSO told us they “had eyes on the bag” and would send it on the next flight. That flight came and went. No bag. No updates. No accountability. Just a constant runaround between more than 50 calls to BSO offices, Customer Service, and Central Baggage Services in Atlanta — each department redirecting us to another with zero resolution.
When we attempted to file a claim online, Frontier’s own system blocked us due to a Voluntary Separation (VSUP) being placed on our luggage without our knowledge or consent. It took an email to the corporate office in Denver just to get the system unlocked. The online claim process took seven hours to complete… only for Frontier to deny it almost instantly. To call this unacceptable is an understatement.
And as if the nightmare wasn’t complete, Frontier oversold our return flight home and casually told me they’d refund my ticket and I could “figure it out” myself — or take a 17-hour connecting route. Only the kindness and competence of the San Diego check-in agents got me home. Frontier themselves certainly didn’t. At this point, words barely capture our disgust. Our new family rule is simple: If Frontier is the only way to get there, we are not going. Period. Never again will we give Frontier the chance to treat us — or anyone in our family — with this level of negligence, disrespect, and outright disregard. For an airline that calls itself “the best in the industry,” the only accurate response is bitter laughter. An abomination of an experience from end to end.

I was researching flight prices on Kayak. I found a flight that looked good with Frontier. Then I went to the Frontier Airlines website to double-check the flight prices and conditions and possibly book that flight. Once I was on the Frontier Airlines website I was prompted to open an account complete with address and credit card information before I could even look at any flights. I did enter my information. I did some flight research and decided after all not to book the flight because of flight times, luggage restrictions, etc. So I closed the website. I received several emails from Frontier about creating an account, password and one email about some Mileage Elite Challenge. I was unaware that I entered a Mileage Elite challenge and the email also did not say anything about paying a $99 fee.
The next day I checked my credit card (like I do every morning) and saw that Frontier charged me $99. Then I contacted their customer service right away online and ask them what this charge is. They told me it is for the Mileage Elite Status challenge and that they cannot refund the money, even though I told them that I was unaware of purchasing any product from them and that it happened within 24 hours.
I have never experienced anything like this before. I still do not know how and where on the website this happened. It must have been when I was forced to open my account for the website. I also have never experienced that I am not allowed to cancel this and get a refund for telling the service provider right away that it was unintentionally. This clearly looks like a scam to me. I have never flown with Frontier or booked a flight with them, so why would I pay for some frequent flyer program? And why does a frequent flyer program cost something to begin with? They clearly trick their customers into buying a useless service. I fully expect a refund for this!

My recent trip with Frontier Airlines (Des Moines → Denver → Seattle, October 12, 2025) was an absolute nightmare — not just because of how chaotic and humiliating the boarding process was, but because of how dishonestly the airline handled it afterward. It started at the Denver gate, where an agent suddenly announced that the flight needed 90 volunteers to check their carry-on bags. Ninety. The entire gate area fell silent. Frontier doesn’t even include carry-ons in the base fare — they’re an extra cost — so how could they oversell them by that much? It made no sense. Instead of organizing a process to fix it, the agents just proceeded with boarding as if everything were normal.
I had paid extra for a premium seat and Group 1 boarding, specifically to board early and secure overhead space. But as soon as my boarding pass was scanned, I was stopped at a locked door leading to the tarmac. The gate agents kept scanning more people anyway, funneling everyone into a tight, airless hallway with no direction, no communication, and no way to turn around. Dozens of passengers were crammed shoulder-to-shoulder, waiting for nearly 20 minutes in the heat and confusion. When the door finally opened, we were herded down the ramp and made to stand on the tarmac again — this time for another long stretch while agents assisted passengers in wheelchairs. It was loud, disorganized, and nobody knew what was going on. That’s when things got even worse.
A rude gate agent walked up to my partner and me and abruptly announced that he was checking our carry-on bags. Not asking — telling. I explained that my bag contained my late father’s death certificates and personal belongings. He didn’t care. I was so desperate to protect those items that I ended up opening my suitcase on the tarmac, kneeling down to pull out my father’s documents and keepsakes while the line of passengers stood watching. It was humiliating, chaotic, and deeply distressing. Only after I became visibly upset did the agent finally say, “Fine, whatever,” and allow me to board with my bag.
The flight itself was no better — the crew seemed irritated and disengaged, snapping at passengers, offering no warmth or professionalism whatsoever. That alone was enough to ensure I’d never fly Frontier again. But what happened afterward was even more outrageous. When I filed a complaint, Frontier lied in writing, claiming I had received an email days earlier offering to check my carry-on, that I had “accepted” the change, and that my bag was “checked as agreed.” Every word of that is false. I never received such an email, I never accepted any change, and my bag was never checked. I pointed this out clearly — yet Frontier responded again with a canned message ignoring the lies entirely, hiding behind vague “policies,” and refusing to acknowledge or correct the false statements.
What started as a stressful, disorganized flight became a months-long exercise in dishonesty and corporate gaslighting. Frontier’s behavior — both at the gate and in their written responses — has been deceptive, unprofessional, and completely devoid of empathy. If you value your time, your dignity, or the truth, do yourself a favor and never fly Frontier Airlines.

I arrived early after confirming there were no delays—rep on the phone even said they’d notify customers a day in advance if anything changed. All signs said “on time” until boarding, when they suddenly announced a four-hour delay. Once we finally boarded, they announced another hour delay—with everyone already trapped on the plane.

Her flight was so delayed that she missed her connecting flight by 8 minutes. She is stuck at Atlanta airport now for 14 hours until she can get on a flight that can bring her to Cleveland. I’m worried that by the time rolls around for that flight it will be delayed again and she might miss the funeral. I will never fly frontier airlines and will spread the word to everyone know. The price difference is not worth their unreliability and poor management.

Horrible… horrible…horrible… I checked in for my flight on time at the kiosk in the airport and printed my boarding pass also at the kiosk. When I got on the flight I was told that I had not checked in and that my name was not on the manifest. They made me leave the flight. Then I was told that I had to wait a whole 24 hours until I could get on another flight. No accommodations were made. No accountability was taken. This was a total inconvenience, particularly when the error was not time. How can one print a boarding pass, be assigned a seat, without checking it? How could I not be checked in, when it says I’m checked it and I’m able to get a boarding pass? This was my first time flying with Frontier airlines and it will definitely be my last. Please don’t fly with them!

0/5 stars. My partner and I successfully checked in via the required mobile app prior to our flight, we downloaded our mobile boarding passes, and successfully checked our bags at the airport using our mobile boarding passes. We moved through security without any issues. Once boarding at the gate, we were denied access onto the plane due to a “faulty boarding pass”, blinking red upon scanning. We were told to step aside and wait for a supervisor as the gate agent was not able to help us. After waiting ~1 hour for a supervisor (our flight long gone at this point), the supervisor appeared confused as we were indeed checked in and our luggage was on it’s way to our destination (indicative of successful check-in per the agent).
We called Frontier to no avail; I was told there isn’t an official phone number or email to file a complaint with Frontier. A refund was issued after looping in an Expedia agent. However, this refund does not cover the cost of two last minute flights (delaying our trip by 24 hours) along with the additional transport to and from the airport (~1 hour each way) and separation from our luggage. I want to bring this to the attention of the Consumer Affairs not only because of my case, but because I’m finding similar complaints made against Frontier airlines online.

My daughter was flying home from RDU to PHX, and had with her the exact same personal item from the inbound flight on 10/17/25 in her possession. The bag was within the 8" x 14" x 18" personal item requirement. At the gate, she was not allowed on the plane unless she paid $99 for the personal item as the gate agent said it was a "carry on". The exact same bag that cost $0 on the flight here, that easily fit under the seat and was covered in the price of the ticket.
Additionally, I paid $54 in advance for a checked bag for her. Upon arriving at the airport one hour in advance of the flight (i.e. 5:30 am), there were no agents at the check-in counter. All of the other airlines had attendants available to help passengers, except Frontier Airlines. We were told the agents were at the gate, where she could check the bag. However, she was not able to pass through TSA security with the bag, as it was "too large". The bag contained key personal items that she was not able to take back to AZ.
We were informed by some rude people in the Frontier office by baggage claim that we needed to be at the airport two hours before departure to check the bag, which would have been 4:30 am. TSA was not even open at that time. Per the rude employees, this information is on the website. However, it clearly was not readily available information to consume when I paid for the checked bag. To conclude, this was easily the worst airline travel experience ever for me and my daughter. I can honestly say I will NEVER fly Frontier Airlines again and recommend anyone to reconsider this airline for future travel.

My first experience flying with Frontier Airlines was an absolute nightmare, and it will be my last. Our flight was delayed by over two hours after it that canceled completely. We never even boarded a plane. The only available rebooking options were either a flight 24 hours later, which required an overnight stay in Denver, or a flight that would not have worked, as it was 4 days past our scheduled Airbnb check-in. We were left stranded with no alternatives. I lost $400 on the flight and was issued only a $100 voucher, which is useless since I will never fly with Frontier again. Also, I lost $1,000 on a non-refundable Airbnb because we couldn't reach our destination.
To make matters worse, the customer service was completely lacking. The gate agent made a brief announcement about the delay and then the cancellation, before walking away without answering questions or providing any support. Dozens of passengers were left confused, upset, and helpless.

One of the worst airlines. This will be my first and last booking through Frontier. I booked a flight from LAX to DFW on August 28th at 7 PM, and the flight number was 4964. I reached LAX airport at 5 PM PST. After the security check, there were delays due to airport services, and along with me, there were almost 25 people affected. The flight was supposed to depart at 7 PM, and we reached the gate at 6:45 PM.
Since the delay was caused by airport services and we were 25 people, the flight should have accommodated us—but it had already departed. When we asked, they said it was our mistake and told us to reach out to customer support. We were standing in the damn line for almost 3 hours, and the people at the counter were extremely slow in clearing the line. Despite explaining my concern, instead of refunding the full amount, they refunded only half, and I had to pay additional charges for the same flight the very next day. I had to spend the whole night at the airport. They had no alternate solution.
The next day, I observed that people were still being allowed to board the flight until 6:55 PM. I believe this was completely unfair to us. Due to their negligence and poor service, everyone had to pay additional amounts in order to reach their destination. The staff was also very rude.

*1/5 stars*. I had a disappointing experience with Frontier Airlines employee Tessa at CLT on flight F9 1328. She enforced the bag size policy strictly, forcing me to pay $99 for a bag that fit under the seat the entire day. When I boarded the plane, the flight attendants confirmed that my bag would indeed go under the seat, just like it had on my previous flights. Tessa's inflexibility and refusal to listen to my explanation (and my mother's) were frustrating. I felt that the $99 fee was unnecessary and that common sense should have prevailed. Frontier Airlines might benefit from re-evaluating their bag policy enforcement and staff training to avoid similar situations in the future.

I had a flight to Las Vegas and the door was closed 20 minutes before the flight. I missed it by 5 minutes and had to take another flight. I went to another gate and saw courtesy from the pilot to let customers on board beyond the door closing time. I am very unhappy as a Den Member. They didn’t ask or care. I had my two teenagers going to Vegas for the first time. I was told by another customer they heard the door check-in person say, “She had to go pick up her kids.” Meanwhile, we have to take a connecting flight and spend 7 hours in Cleveland for an 8 AM flight. Horrible.

I am writing this as a forewarning of anyone who finds themself in the same unfortunate position as me. My father passed away and was being laid to rest at the Veterans Memorial in Orlando. I bought my ticket through Frontier with ease paying $96 one way from JFK to arrive in Orlando at 10 am on flight 4871. Check-in online went smoothly but when I woke up to catch my flight there were several delays with the latest arrival being at 9:24 pm! Although I did receive a full refund I MISSED MY DAD’S FUNERAL and was devastated! I have never flown through Frontier and didn’t know their bad reputation until after and learned they have a history of delayed flights and flight cancellations. So in terms of flying with them for sentimental reasons, I highly advise against taking the risk. I wish someone had warned me so I could’ve avoided this from happening and been there to lay my dad to rest.

My wife and I recently took a trip from Denver to Las Vegas. Since it was our anniversary, I opted to spend the exorbitant $52 additional (per seat) for the exit row. So, the day of the flight comes, everything is on time, and we board the flight to discover that they have changed plane configurations, and the seats we had booked online are no long exit row on this particular plane. I ask the flight attendant what is going on, as I have paid $104 for exit row seats, and now am sitting a regular seat with no additional leg room. She tells me that they changed the plane for this trip, and gives me a business card with the customer service email... and says "good luck!".
Needless to say, I am a bit peeved that I paid extra for the seat upgrade and was given a regular row crappy seat. When we get back from our weekend in Vegas, I email the customer service team and tell them what happened, expecting to either get a refund for the seat upgrade price, or at a minimum get a credit for the amount. They respond and basically say "too bad" you booked a certain seat number and got your seat number. When I explain a second time that they changed the plane, so the seat number I reserved was no longer exit row... they say "our policy is to not give refunds if you got the seat you booked".
I try a third time... and radio silence. So, I guess you can pay in advance for upgrades, and Frontier will take your money and then not give you the upgrade. Very poor customer service and they are basically stealing your money. I used to love Frontier long ago... but they have become the epitome of a greedy corporation with absolutely no regard for their customers any longer. So long Frontier... You have lost a long-time customer!

We flew from Sea-Tac to DFW on June 9.2025. We arrived 2.5 hours early to make sure we got to our gate on time. We stood in line at the ticket counter along with about 100 other passengers waiting on an agent to check our bag in. The agent, from what another airline told us, was an hour late. When we finally got to the counter the agent told everyone if you checked in online and have your boarding pass on your phone. Take your checked luggage with you to the plane. My husband and I had several items in our checked luggage that we knew could not go through carry on procedures. We told the agent this bd he said he was done for the day and would not be assisting anyone else. He told us he would call the gate ahead and security that passengers would be bringing their checked baggage.
At this time boarding of our flight had begun and we had yet to go through security. At security they confiscated a total of $730 worth of various items. We did everything correctly and packed the item in the checked luggage wrapped in plastic. These items were confiscated because we were made to bring our checked luggage to the gate ourselves and not processed by the frontier agent because of his inability to do his job. They are telling me that our luggage was processed at 9:07 am 15 minutes prior to the flight boarding time so it was our fault we were late. But in my photo I provided them we are standing in line a full 2 hours prior to boarding time.

By far one of the worst airlines I have used. Firstly the app is very glitchy and made it very difficult to add a checked bag. We arrived at the airport 1 and a half hours before boarding time, they were extremely short staffed and the associate at the line refereed us to the kiosk for our checked bag tag, only a small number of kiosks were actually working and as a result there was a very long line. Once we were finally able to use the kiosk it said that we were too late to check our bag in and to see an associate. We went back to the associate in line and they were extremely rude to just us but to many others, the associate informed us that there’s nothing she can do (even though we checked in hours before) and that we have to miss our flight and told us to wait in an even longer line to change our flight.
The next flight was not available until 1:30pm (our departure time before was 6am) and this new flight would be a connecting flight when our flight before was a direct one. As a result we lost our rental car that was scheduled which cost us $400. And we also lost a whole day of our anniversary trip. To add on this connecting flight has also been delayed to put us at our destination even later. I will never use or recommend this airline to anyone, we got no help from any associates or customer service.

Worst airline ever!!! Every time I take Frontier, it’s a nightmare. Last flight I took with them, there was a 9 hour delay. After waiting 9 hours in the airport, they cancelled the flight. They did not compensate for flight or Uber fees. On yesterday’s flight, there was an unexpected carry on fee. I tried paying on the app, but it wasn’t working. The staff announced that there’s free check in, but then said I couldn’t do it and that I had to take my carry on. They charged me $200 for a carry on. It’s a scam. They are con artists. Why is there a charge for a free service?! It was so unfair.
Then there was a delay of course so I missed my non refundable show in Vegas. The overhead cabin was leaking water. They won’t allow me to sit next to me my mom even though there were empty rows. Finally, this flight like my last flight was absolutely freezing. When I asked the flight attendant to decrease the air, she said she was menopausal and she’s hot. The whole airplane has to suffer because she’s menopausal. Disgusting. Absolutely unprofessional and unaccommodating. I will cancel my flight home with them. Never ever again!!

Our flight 3191 on 7/25/25, from Salt Lake City to Portland, was subject to multiple delays before it was ultimately canceled. At the time of cancellation, airport staff directed us to scan a QR code to rebook our flight—unfortunately, the QR code did not function. After waiting in a lengthy line, we spoke to Frontier representatives who informed us that while they could view available flights, they were unable to rebook us. Instead, we were instructed to call a customer service number. The Frontier employee at the airport also assured us that a hotel with shuttle service would be arranged for the night and that we would receive an email with the details, and followed their instruction to get our luggages only to find out our luggages were not even there, and of course there was no one at the luggage office.
The email with the hotel voucher did not arrive until several hours later, during which time we remained stranded in the airport with no viable options—especially difficult with a three-year-old in tow. After waiting for a long time at the designated pickup area, we contacted the hotel directly only to be informed that they have never provided a shuttle. Due to the fact that I was traveling with a small child without a car seat, rideshare services such as Uber or Lyft were not an option. I had to return inside the airport, call multiple hotels, and ultimately paid out of pocket for accommodations that could offer a shuttle. My 2 daughters and I finally got to the hotel exhausted at 3:40 am. We didn’t even have energy to wash up and could only brush teeth with hotel provided toothbrush and toothpaste before passing out.
Meanwhile, I followed frontier airport employee’s instruction and was placed on hold for almost 2 hours before a representative finally answered, but after an unproductive attempt to help us secure a new flight to our destination (Portland, Oregon), only options we had according to her was flights that would take either 16 hours or 22 hours long next day, which would get us to Portland at midnight on 7/27. We only planned a 3 days, so it made no sense to us to get there on our last day in Portland. In addition, without our luggages, it would be even more difficult for us as we didn’t have any clean clothes and toiletries including my older daughter’s contact solution and glasses. I insisted the representative other solutions, but she said only options she could provide us was the long hour flights or a refund. I almost begged her cause it was a very difficult situation for me with two minors, and it was almost midnight at the time.
She told me to talk to the frontier ticketing at the airport and the ticketing was closed and no one present. she placed me back on hold, stating she needed to consult someone else. I never heard from her again, and the call was ultimately disconnected after another one hour hold. I was left without any clear solution or follow-up. After the long hour attempting for the solution, I had to purchase air tickets with other airline so we could get to Portland the next day. As a single parent, it takes a lot of effort and encourages for me to save up the money for a vacation for my kids. They were looking forward to it and were so excited. As a mother, I had to try my best to ensure my kids’ happiness and meaningful memories.
This entire experience was not only deeply disappointing but also unacceptable from a customer service and operational standpoint. The failure to provide timely, accurate support; the misinformation given regarding transportation; and the complete lack of follow-through has not only shaken my confidence in your airline but has resulted in significant unplanned expenses.

I’ve never been more mistreated, disrespected, and emotionally exhausted by an airline in my life. This was not just a travel delay—it was a nightmare that left me physically and mentally drained, and it all started when I was denied boarding on my paid seat for the first flight home. Despite having confirmed my seat, I was not allowed to board. No explanation. No support. Just confusion and chaos. I was stranded for over 30 hours, missed two days of work, and spent hundreds of dollars out-of-pocket just to survive the ordeal. The way we were treated was nothing short of inhumane.
The gate agents, Alana and Angel, were vile, rude, and completely devoid of empathy. They spoke down to us like we were garbage. No compassion. No help. No information. We were left in the dark for hours, huddled at the airport with no food or proper communication—like animals waiting for scraps. It felt like we were being punished simply for existing. They openly prioritized passengers based on how much they paid. Those with higher-priced tickets were rebooked first, while the rest of us were tossed aside like second-class citizens. It wasn’t just frustrating—it was demoralizing.
After waiting in the airport for eight grueling hours, we were finally offered hotel compensation—but by then, I had already paid for my own hotel out of desperation, and now I have to fight tooth and nail to get reimbursed. There has been no apology, no accountability, and certainly no empathy. This airline doesn’t just lack customer service—they lack basic human decency. The trauma, the financial loss, the disrespect, the emotional toll—it’s unforgivable. I will never fly with them again, and I urge anyone reading this to avoid them at all costs.

My flight was supposed to leave at 2:50 and continued to get delayed until it was finally cancelled. At one point we did get on the plane but then everyone had to get back off. Also while we were waiting for the plane, they gave one update that the plane would arrive in about 40 minutes and then over an hour later there was still no plane. I ended up spending over 9 hours in the airport and then my luggage was sent to BWI while I had to stay in Atlanta an extra night. By the time the flight was cancelled there were very few flights from Atlanta to BWI the next day.
Therefore the ticket I had to buy was very expensive and because of the unreliability of frontier I had to spend more money than should have been reasonable. It was all very inconvenient and caused me to miss an important training for my job. It also seemed very unprofessional to me that when I arrived at BWI there was no one in the baggage claim office.

AVOID FRONTIER AIRLINES AT ALL COSTS – UNRELIABLE AND UNPROFESSIONAL. Do not make the mistake of booking with Frontier Airlines.

Without warning, Frontier changed my flight on June 13, 2025 to an overnight flight that departed more than 10 hours later than my original booking – a major inconvenience. Not only that, but the new fare was significantly cheaper than what I originally paid.
I requested a refund for the price difference, which took an entire week just to get an email response. When they finally replied, they claimed my refund was approved — but that’s where the nightmare really began. On the day of my trip, I tried to check in and discovered my flight had been completely cancelled by Frontier. No email, no text, no warning. They erased my booking without notifying me at all. I was left stranded and forced to purchase a last-minute ticket on Delta just to reach my destination.

This was by far the worst airline experience I’ve ever had. Our Frontier flight was 4 hours late with barely any communication from the staff. Once we finally landed, we sat on the tarmac for another 2 hours just waiting for a gate to open up. The crew was rude and dismissive, clearly frustrated themselves, but taking it out on passengers, especially on me, 3 months post spinal surgery. I was in so much pain that I couldn’t stay seated any longer therefore, the flight attendant was rude and mean, threatening to call the captain on me.
There was zero effort to make anyone feel comfortable or informed. I understand delays happen, but this was handled horribly from start to finish. Combine that with the uncomfortable seats, hidden fees, and terrible service—this was a reminder that cheap isn’t worth it. I will never fly Frontier again, and I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone.

Frontier airlines is the worst.... My first and last time traveling with them.... They made my travel on 7/20/25 a nightmare. I made my complaint and request for the extra I paid to upgrade not once but twice to their so call "Premium Bundle" and was automatically kicked off the flight, after a 3 plus hours delay then had to board last after a couple gave up their seats to take a later flight and I went from Premium 3F to seat 25E and they won't refund the extra I paid for my "Premium Bundle". Disgraceful business practice. I urge all of you to think twice before booking with this airline. TO MAKE IT WORSE I AM COMING BACK FROM A FUNERAL OF A CHILDHOOD FRIEND.
Dear Frontier Airlines Customer Service, I'm writing to express my disappointment and frustration with my recent travel experience on Flight Number F9 1554 from MCO to RDU. Despite paying for a premium ticket upgrade, I was unexpectedly bumped from my seat (3F) due to a delay of over 3 hours. To my surprise, I was automatically kicked off the flight, and when I boarded, I was given a seat in the back of the plane - 25E. What made matters worse was that I was forced to board last, despite having a premium ticket that originally allowed me to board first. ETC.... Still no response.

My 1st time flying to CA with my wife and the first flight I had to switch names and they wanted to charge me almost 480$ just to change a name because my mother couldn’t go, wasn’t able to get customer service on the phone, online services didn’t work correctly, had to drive to airport and beg and plead before changing names but still at a cost of $228! Two tickets ran $350 when I booked it and it’s ridiculous they wanted to charge me close to 500 to simply change a name. This tells me they don’t care about customers.
Flight out was two hours delayed. We We’re sitting on the tarmac for over an hour. Flight back home was delayed for over two hours, we had to completely change gates and this was also a transfer flight. Still waiting and the experience has just been horrible. I would suggest charge more and don’t be the cheapest but also have good customer service and attentiveness to customers needs. I normally don’t write bad reviews like this but if they continue to do business this way, I feel they’ll eventually go bankrupt. First experience and will definitely be my very last one with you Frontier.

We recently flew with Frontier Airlines from Santa Ana to Las Vegas and back. The flight from Santa Ana was decent—no major complaints. But the return flight from Las Vegas to Santa Ana was a completely different story. Las Vegas Frontier feels like a cash grab. They tried to charge us extra for everything—seats, bags, you name it. And what made it worse was the attitude. Employees were short, rude, and not helpful at all. It felt like they were just looking for reasons to tack on extra fees.
We also noticed some serious inconsistency. People with large bags were allowed to board without issues, while others (like us) were singled out and forced to pay. It didn’t feel fair, and it definitely didn’t feel random. Same airline, two completely different experiences. Frontier, if this is how you operate in Vegas, you’ve lost our business.

Traveled with my six week old and 2 year old. Frontier lost my infant car seat and after waiting two hours for them to find it, offered a toddler car seat that was far too big. When I explained that the car seat was unsafe, I was told to go to the store and buy a new car seat- no problem solving on how to get to the store, no mention of a refund (until another hour had passed).
On the way home, my flight was delayed by three hours which is unfortunate but ultimately a small problem. The real aggravation came when trying to speak with customer service about being refunded for my car seat. What a headache! I held for 5 hours and after speaking with a manager for about three minutes, was strangely disconnected. To make matters worse, I never received a call back from that manager and can no longer speak with anyone as the customer service number prompts you to “chat” then hangs up. I will NEVER fly Frontier again and will make sure I spread this message across every platform possible.

I recently booked a flight with Frontier Airlines from Philadelphia to West Palm Beach. I’m 91 years old and fully dependent on a walker. While I can manage very short distances, I quickly become severely fatigued and physically incapable of continuing without proper assistance. When I purchased my ticket, I clearly indicated that I required wheelchair assistance to and from the gate — a basic accommodation for someone with my mobility challenges. Upon arriving at the airport, my ride escorted me inside to ensure I’d be cared for, only for us to be casually told they "ran out of wheelchairs" and I’d have to walk.
Let that sink in. A 91-year-old handicapped passenger, who requested assistance in advance, was told to walk through the airport. No apology, no alternative offered, just an appalling lack of concern. The Frontier staff showed no urgency, no empathy, and frankly, no professionalism. What kind of airline fails to have enough wheelchairs — or a contingency plan — for elderly, disabled passengers? This isn’t just bad service; it’s disgraceful, irresponsible, and dangerous. I’ve never felt so disregarded by a company in my life. Frontier Airlines should be ashamed of how they treat their most vulnerable passengers. If you or a loved one need any kind of mobility support, stay far away from this airline. — A deeply disappointed and exhausted passenger.

This has been, without question, the absolute worst experience I have ever had flying — and I come from a family that has worked in the airline industry for decades. My flight with Frontier on May 18, 2025, turned into a nightmare of poor communication, disorganization, and a complete lack of customer care. We arrived at the airport and sat there for over 8 hours before being told to board. Then, shortly after boarding, the flight was suddenly canceled. What followed was a series of unacceptable failures. We were initially told it could take up to a week to get us home — a completely unreasonable timeline, especially considering most of us have jobs to return to, families depending on us, and bills to pay.
Not once did Frontier offer help with hotel accommodations or even check in to see if we were okay. I spent two full days on the phone with customer service, receiving little to no help. I was eventually rebooked on a flight that didn’t leave until three days later, turning a simple 3.5-hour non-stop trip into a 10-hour travel day. On top of that, I had to pay again for seat selections and luggage on the new flight — despite this being Frontier’s fault.
To make matters worse, it has now been over two months since this happened, and I still haven’t received any meaningful response or resolution. Two weeks ago, I finally got through to someone on the phone, only to be told I’d get a response within 14–48 hours — which never came. I missed four days of work, lost pay, and incurred additional travel expenses — all without so much as an apology or support from Frontier. I would never recommend this airline to anyone and will absolutely never fly Frontier again. Their lack of accountability, empathy, and professionalism is staggering. They should be ashamed of how they treat their customers.

If I could give Frontier Airlines negative one million stars, I would. My family recently traveled from Buffalo to Atlanta with Frontier, and it was—without exaggeration—the worst airline experience we have ever endured. On our return flight, Frontier canceled the flight more than 10 times between 7AM and the afternoon. Passengers were forced to stay on the plane for over five hours, with Frontier refusing to allow anyone to deplane without forfeiting their ticket and luggage. This was not just inconvenient—it was inhumane. No food. No water. No air circulation. No communication. And no compassion. The heat became unbearable. The crew repeatedly ignored pleas for assistance, and due to this gross negligence, an elderly passenger—over 90 years old—suffered a seizure from the heat and dehydration. It was horrifying to witness, and entirely avoidable.
This isn’t just poor service. It’s a complete failure of basic human decency and safety. Frontier treated its passengers like cargo, not people. Holding passengers hostage on a plane for hours under threat of financial penalty is unacceptable. And refusing to provide water or food during that time is outright abusive. I strongly urge anyone considering Frontier: do not waste your money or risk your well-being. This is, without question, the worst airline in America.

I recently booked a flight with Frontier Airlines, scheduled to depart at 5:59 am from EWR and arrive in ATL at 8:30 am on July 18th. I arrived at the airport at 4 am, but my day took a frustrating turn. The ticket agents were exceptionally unprofessional, treating customers poorly and showing a complete lack of communication regarding delays. After waiting for three hours, we were informed about issues with the aircraft, including problems with the wheel and an oil leak. Although a part was eventually delivered and the on-ground team managed to fix the plane, by then both the pilot and copilot had reached their time limits, resulting in a 12-hour delay.
We were finally told to return to the airport for a 1:30 am flight. Then around 11:30 pm, I started receiving emails—thankfully I checked them—informing us of yet another delay to 2:33 am, which kept getting pushed back to 2:53 am, then 3:53 am, and finally to 4:53 am. Ultimately, I never made it to my destination. Due to this ordeal, I had to pay extra for car service and was later informed that Frontier would not offer compensation, aside from a measly $10 food voucher. In an airport, that amount barely covers a snack and water.
The worst part of this experience was missing a significant milestone in my son's life. It broke my heart to see his disappointment with every delay I had to communicate. This was my first and last time flying with Frontier Airlines, and I can't recommend them to anyone.

If you want to sleep in the airport and lose a vacation package, buy a ticket with Frontier. If it's not the worst airline, it's probably in trouble. It's an airline that, even if it looks cheap, charges the highest fees for baggage, seat selection, etc., and reserves the right to do whatever it deems best for its corporate interests with passengers. It resells sold-out tickets and does random things to passengers at its discretion, even if they purchased their tickets in advance; and all of this is protected by a terms and conditions policy that allows them to act with complete impunity. Of course, they're probably less bad than the naïve people who bought their tickets. If you like a bad night, buy a ticket with Frontier.

Dear Frontier Communications, I’m writing to express my absolute disgust with the appalling level of customer service your company provides. I have dealt with incompetence before, but my experience with Frontier has redefined the word. From the moment I attempted to resolve my service issue, I was passed around like an unwanted package between departments that clearly had no communication with one another. I spent hours on hold, only to be disconnected multiple times — and not once did anyone bother to call back, even after I verified my number repeatedly.
When I did finally reach a human being, I was met with robotic scripts, hollow apologies, and zero actual help. Your representatives either didn’t have the training or simply didn’t care — frankly, I’m not sure which is worse. And your automated systems? They’re a nightmarish maze designed to frustrate and confuse. It's like you’re daring customers to give up and stop calling — which, judging by your online reputation, seems to be your business model.
It’s outrageous that in 2025, a company providing essential services can operate with such blatant disregard for its customers. You’ve wasted my time, money, and patience, and the only thing you've delivered consistently is stress and disappointment. I expect a full resolution immediately — not another canned response, not a vague promise, but a real fix and some accountability. If Frontier is incapable of basic customer support, then maybe it’s time regulators started asking harder questions about how you’re allowed to continue operating at all. Do better.

An older woman was upset (literally having a full blown panic attack) bc she couldn't find her boarding pass on the app (NONE of the 4 people behind the counter helped her- one guy looked at her phone and gave it back- no help! and he was even LAUGHING AT HER!)

My returning flight had one gate listed on the boarding pass with the old departing flight time and a completely different INCORRECT gate in a completely different concourse on the airport screens- displaying the new delayed time. The time on your ticket to depart is never the time you depart. In fact, expect to start boarding at your departure tome. For my return flight to BWI, it was delayed multiple times with us sitting on the plane for an hour before we actually took off. In one day I heard more reasons for delays than I’ve ever heard in my life flying. We landed almost two hours after the initial booked time and the power went out? Truly terrible terrible experience and I will never fly Frontier again.

I was held up in TSA so when I finally reached the departing gate for my flight the attendant was closing the door...The door was still open and as I begged the man to let me on he said 'you missed your flight' and slammed the door on me. After scheduling another flight (which was delayed) I called the baggage customer service number only to be hung up on three times. The fourth time was successful but the number ** he gave me to call was never answered after multiple times. I realize traveling can be stressful but being a Frontier member for so long I expected better hospitality.

Never use this company, we drove 2 hours to get the airport and had the flight delayed 1:30 minutes, once we got to the gate we had no seats after purchased seats 9F and 9E from PHL TO MIA and when we got to the gate we were notified that we had no seats. That were taken away for someone else and we had no seats, we are out of the flight and had to drive 18 hours to Miami, next flight will definitely use United Airlines or such, but never in life use Frontier Airlines, that’s was a such humiliation and expensive lost of time and money, beside the gate attendants are all rude and the worse ever.. Don’t ever use FRONTIER AIRLINES.

Frontier is not as bad as everyone claims. It does have its pros cons. Pros are that their flights are affordable. I would recommend this airline for someone who’s taking a very short trip domestically and for one passenger. If you have kids and longer trip frontier is not the one. To begin with their staff has no professionalism anywhere. Now their flight attendants are nice but not the boarding crew nor the representatives you chat with. Very very unprofessional and rude. Let's just say this airline is for those who don’t mind the **.
On my trip they ran out of snacks and refreshments. Please tell me, who does that??!! Yes that’s how ** this airline is. They have absolutely no organization. When exiting the plane they don’t control anything so you’re bound to get into it with someone because everyone just exits out like a bunch of animals. They just pretty much say “we’re here you figure out how to get out.“ You have to fight for bins to put your carry ons. Like I previously mentioned this airline is for someone who’s is traveling alone and with just a personal bag.

This was by far one of the worst experiences ever flying. I should have listened to other people and not booked with this airline. Do you think you are getting a deal and you really aren't. You cannot speak with a person. And if you have a problem, you are screwed. They delayed my flight over 8 hours with no explanation. And then basically told me I was screwed and they weren't going to refund any money. Do Not book with them.
